Not Corey, but this is interesting. I know it's not available in Des Moines yet. I did throw in a vaild zip (90210) just to see how much it would be. The price varies based on the lock you choose (there are like 3 or 4 models that are supported). Looks like the camera alone is about $140.

I do want to replace our deadbolt. I was looking at "connected" options. The best option seems to be the August smart lock, which doesn't actually replace your deadbolt. So now I'm looking to buy a new deadbolt AND a smart lock to go with it.

Corey, you may have convinced me. I washed my comforter today and it caused my washer to overflow and I'm now mopping up water. Would your water sensors have caught this right away? Does it send a notification or what? Im guessing it was only doing this for a few minutes so maybe it wouldn't have helped that much.

The sensor is behind the washing machine so the sensor would have caught it when water got to it. It'd then send a notification and turn off the water main so it would stop right there. You'd put the water sensor at the low point that water would accumulate.
